The ATI Radeon IGP 9100 chipset from Nvidea is supported by the version
of XFree86 4.3.99 that was available before the big license change. It
was in the radeon driver. Can it be backported?
This support is necessary for people who have Asus P4R800-VM
motherboards, the VESA driver doesn't work very nicely on these
motherboards.
